Roberto Benigni talks with Joe Leydon about "Life is Beautiful"

Roberto Benigni waxes poetic -- and critic Joe Leydon does his best Roberto Benigni imitation -- in this 1998 interview.

[@Jadeejj]

He seems to be full of energy in real life as well as in La Vita è Bella.
I like his personality, I think he would be a really nice person to have as a friend.

Roberto Benigni is a real genius, and so well read.

Fascism originates from Sparta

[@LightMovies]

With Sparta has in common the idea of the purity of the race, but fascism was more than that. It comes from the Roman "fasci littori".
